heard about it in Jim Duffy's session at Advisor DevCon.
Also, I do not have to worry about the user killing a task out of the Windows
Task
Scheduler, and it is one more thing to worry about when deploying a vertical

application, and even a custom app. I know the user can shut down SQL Server
Agent, but
when the job does not complete successfully I can have it email me. Now it just
does not
run. A poor design decision by Microsoft in my opinion.
Certainly most would agree with you. Wonder why they decided to leave
it out????? Perhaps they'll see the error of their ways and make the
right decision?
